Tailings Stacking project for Australian iron ore mine
TNT delivered a tailings stacking system for an Australian iron ore mine involved the design, supply and construction of a fixed tail radial stacker, concrete runway, electrical controls and instrumentation. The project was carried out in partnership with e2o Engineering and showcased the system’s ability to operate in extreme temperatures of as low as ~50°C. TNT’s modularization approach enabled efficient, streamlined and fast-tracked construction.
